The students walked into the library. They were not surprised to see Xiao Bing and Elder Jiu talking to each other. Elder Jiu had always been a mysterious and low-key person in the school, but almost everyone knew that he had a special personality. He would not even give face to the dean. However, it was widely rumored that Elder Jiu treated Xiao Jun differently.
The students stopped talking and swiped their point cards. Then, they walked in together to read.
After the students went in, Elder Jiu asked, "Is this also your doing?"
Xiao Bing shrugged and said with a smile, "I went to talk to him."
"Yes, you can." Elder Jiu sighed. "It seems that you are well prepared. You can even make use of Emperor Song Lian."
Xiao Bing said, "This is all thanks to my Uncle Ear. Oh, my Uncle Gu, Gu Yichuan."
Elder Jiu nodded and said, "These are the assets that your father left for you. Gu Yichuan is very useful. Back then, he was already intimidating. Now that 30 years have passed, I didn't expect him to still be able to do these things."
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "Uncle Ear also has an intelligence network in the human world. He also has a nickname in the human world, called All-knowing Man, which means that he knows everything in this world."
Elder Jiu laughed and said, "He was not only an intelligence network for your father, but also a resourceful person."
"Yes, Uncle Ear said that I have other counselors under me and he is old, so he basically doesn't give me any advice now."
Elder Jiu nodded and said, "That's right. That's why I said that he is really smart. He knows when to step back, which is not easy. He is not young anymore, and the most important thing is that he doesn't have any talent in martial arts. Generally, warriors with higher realms can live longer. So it's time for him to step back and enjoy his life."
Xiao Bing nodded sadly and said, "Uncle Ear has always been supporting me without complaint. When I go back, I must ask him to step back. I will take care of him until he dies."
"You are affectionate and loyal. You are like your father in this aspect."
The reason why Xiao Bing felt a little sad was that he could see that Er was not in good health, and he could not easily nurse him back to health. In fact, Xiao Bing was afraid that the people around him would not be around. Although Xiao Bing was used to seeing people die, whether it was Su Peiya, Old Lei, Chi Ban Zhongshan, or some of his former guards who died in battles, Xiao Bing would feel very lost and sad every time someone passed away.
Elder Jiu seemed to know what was on Xiao Bing's mind. He looked at Xiao Bing and his eyes became much softer. He said, "You are a loyal and affectionate child. That is why I admired your father. Sigh, what a pity, your father's talent was so good, but he actually died in the hands of a vile person. Child, in the upcoming battle, you must grasp the opportunity well. After all, you can't afford to lose it. Xiao Duantian's vigilance is very high, he won't fall for it so easily. If you lose your chance the first time, you won't have another one in the future. "
"I know." Xiao Bing nodded and said, "My father's spirit in heaven will protect me."
"Okay." Elder Jiu said, "Do you want to drink some wine?"
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "Not now. I don't usually drink during the day. Maybe I will come and drink with you at night if I have nothing to do."
"Haha, okay."
Xiao Bing said, "I will also go to the library to have a look. Our library is so big, and there are so many books that I haven't read yet."
Elder Jiu said proudly, "Our library is the largest in the entire Divine Realm. Except for some precious books that we don't have on the God of Heaven Mountain, we have everything you need. The books in this library are many times more complete than the ones on the God of Heaven Mountain."
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "Elder Jiu, you should drink less in the future. Just drink a little less every day. Look at you, you drink a jar of wine every day. You will get sick if you drink too much."
"I can't change my old drunkard's habit."
"Sigh, I will drink with you when I have time."
"Okay, go ahead. I will take a nap if I have nothing to do. Go ahead and do your work."
"Okay, Elder Jiu."
Xiao Bing went straight to the top floor of the library and began to read the books one by one. Xiao Bing didn't have any books that he wanted to read now. He started from the first book on the first shelf and read them one by one. He skipped the ones he knew and read the ones he didn't. Time passed little by little. In the blink of an eye, from morning to night, Xiao Bing was immersed in reading from beginning to end.
Elder Jiu came up twice during this period. Seeing that Xiao Bing was immersed in reading, Elder Jiu left again.
Xiao Bing seemed to be immersed in reading. The next morning, Elder Jiu walked into the library with two jars of good wine. He looked up and asked curiously, "Is this brat still reading?"
He walked up slowly. His footsteps were steady, and his hands were behind his back. He was a little hunched. When he got to the top, he found that Xiao Bing was still looking at him attentively and did not notice him at all.
Elder Jiu was stunned for a moment and said, "Well, this is the first time that I have seen someone stay here for a day and a night. Let's see how long he can keep reading."
One night, when Elder Jiu went up to check on Xiao Bing, he found that Xiao Bing was still reading attentively. Now Xiao Bing had reached the third shelf. He had finished reading over 100 books on the two shelves.
Elder Jiu shook his head and left.
On the third day, Elder Jiu went up to check on Xiao Bing when he came. He didn't find it strange that Xiao Bing was still reading. He drank some wine alone and waited for the other students to come and read before he left. The day passed quickly.
On the fourth day, Xia Hongyin and Ouyang Ye came back. After they came in, Ouyang Ye immediately closed the door of the library and said to Elder Jiu, "Xiao Bing didn't lie. I really saw it."
Ouyang Ye's face was indescribably solemn.
Elder Jiu sighed and said, "Although I can't believe it, I believe that this guy wouldn't lie. You must be Xia. You don't look any different."
Xia Hongyin bowed and said, "Elder Jiu, I haven't seen you for a long time. I remember that the last time we met was when my child was born. Potian invited you over. Potian actually respects you the most in his life. Alas."
Elder Jiu also sighed and said, "The dead can't come back to life. There are some things that we shouldn't think about. Sometimes, I would also think, how great would it be if I, this old man, died in exchange for that child Xiao Potian's life. Xiao Potian's talent is peerless. He shouldn't have died. He is the hope of the Protoss. "
Ouyang Ye snorted and said, "That's true. If Xiao Potian was still alive, he might have cultivated to the Divine Body or even the Perfected Divine Body. I'm afraid that those human weapons wouldn't be able to harm him. Wouldn't our Protoss be truly glorious then?"
Now that he saw the advanced technology of the human race, Ouyang Ye also thought about whether those advanced technologies would still be effective against Xiao Potian if he was still alive. Unfortunately, there was no such thing as' if '.
Xia Hongyin said, "Actually, even if Potian was still alive, he couldn't face the entire human race alone. After all, he still had to consider the lives of all his clansmen."
"Yes." Ouyang Ye and Elder Jiu nodded at the same time.
Ouyang Ye said, "By the way, where is Xiao Bing? I heard that he is in the library. "
"He has been in the library for three days and three nights. He has been reading all the time. He hasn't left."
"Really?" Ouyang Ye was a little surprised and said, "I'll go up and have a look."
Ouyang Ye walked up. When he reached the top floor of the library, he saw that Xiao Bing was really focused on reading. Xiao Bing had already reached the fifth shelf. He had read at least 200 books.
Ouyang Ye walked up but Xiao Bing didn't seem to notice him. Ouyang Ye couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw this. He said in surprise, "This guy's concentration is too strong. How can he concentrate on reading for three days and three nights without being distracted? Should I call out to him, or … "
Ouyang Ye hesitated for a moment, but he still walked down first. When he saw Xia Hongyin and Elder Jiu, he shook his head and said, "He is still focused on reading. He doesn't even know that I came up. How long is he going to read like this? "
Elder Jiu said, "I don't know how long it will take. What's wrong? Is there anything else?"
Ouyang Ye said, "Nothing. But when we came back, we heard something. Song Liandi challenged Xiao Duantian, but was rejected by Xiao Duantian."
"Oh?" Elder Jiu frowned slightly. Then he sneered and said, "I have long known that Xiao Duantian is a very scheming person. He doesn't care about forbearance. I didn't expect him to be able to forbear at a time like this even though he is already a Divine King. "
Ouyang Ye said, "Logically speaking, a mighty Divine King shouldn't show any fear towards Song Liandi. However, at a time like this, the outside world actually agrees with Xiao Duantian. Everyone is even discussing Song Liandi in private."
"I see." Elder Jiu was also a smart person. He immediately understood what was going on. "Now that the enchantment of the Divine Realm is about to disappear, everyone has to think about the big picture. Therefore, everyone thinks that Song Liandi doesn't care about the big picture and the Divine King doesn't accept the challenge because he wants to preserve his strength against the humans. So it's reasonable."
"Yes, that's right." Ouyang Ye said, "But in this case, even if the Divine King doesn't accept the challenge, Song Liandi and the Divine King have already openly fallen out. They will fight one day."
Xia Hongyin said worriedly, "We can't wait for that day. Because we need to become the Divine King as soon as possible …"
Ouyang Ye nodded, "Time waits for no man. But what can we do now …"
While the three of them were talking, someone suddenly knocked on the door. Ouyang Ye walked over and opened the door. It was the vice dean, Zhu Geyu. Zhu Geyu looked inside and said in a low voice, "Dean, someone from the academy just came. He said he wants to see Xiao Jun."
"Oh." Ouyang Ye asked, "Who is it?"
"Song Liandi."
